Chapter 847
At a little after eight o’clock in the morning, Charlie drove the old man out of the villa.
There was still more than two hours before the plane landed but Jacob could not wait any longer.
After leaving the villa at Thompson First, Jacob hurriedly asked Charlie, “My dear son-in-law, do youknow where I can buy a bouquet of flowers? I want to buy a bouquet of roses to give to Matilda.”
Charlie replied, “Dad, your classmate will be bringing her son along with her today. Do you really thinkthat it will be appropriate for you to give her roses in front of her son?”
Jacob thought to himself for a few moments before he nodded and said, “You are right. I should justgive her an ordinary bouquet of flowers then.”
Charlie replied, “I know of a flower shop nearby. We can go there and buy a bouquet of flowers first.”
As soon as they arrived at the flower shop, Charlie spent five hundred dollars to ask the florist to helphim to prepare a bouquet of flowers that symbolizes friendship. After that, he brought the bouquet offlowers back to Jacob who was waiting inside the car.
Jacob was very excited when he held the bouquet of flowers in his hand. He smiled as he said, “Thisflorist is really very professional! This bouquet of flowers looks very impressive and generous! I believethat Matilda will definitely love it!”
Charlie smiled slightly before he whispered in his heart that Jacob was really experiencing a secondspring. If Matilda was still interested in Jacob after all these years, then it would definitely be possiblefor the two of them to start over again.
As he thought about this, Charlie could not help feeling a little sympathetic toward the old man.
After all, for his wife’s sake, he could not make Elaine disappear completely from the face of this world.Therefore, he could only allow his old man to meet up happily with his first love now. After Elaine isreleased from the detention center in a few days’ time, Jacob would have to put up with all of herdemands and the hard time that she gave him again.
If Elaine found out that Matilda was back in Aurous Hill, she would definitely cause more trouble for himand Jacob would lead an even more miserable and pathetic life then.
Charlie naturally did not say all these to his father-in-law. After all, he knew that he was really happyand excited right now. Charlie wanted him to enjoy the feeling of freedom with his first love beforeElaine comes out of the detention center!
At this time, Jacob suddenly asked, “Oh, Charlie, did you book a room at Shangri-La for us already?”
“Yes, I booked the room already,” Charlie nodded slightly. “You can be rest assured that everything hasalready been prepared and arranged in advance for you. I guarantee that you and Aunt Matilda will bevery satisfied today.”novelbin
“That’s good. That’s good!” Jacob heaved a huge sigh of relief before he looked at the bouquet offlowers in his hands. He looked at the only rose in the bouquet of flowers before he smelled it andexclaimed, “Ah! This scent is simply too refreshing!”
After he was done speaking, he could not help but hummed an old song: “Rose, rose, I love you, rose.Rose, rose, love…”
Charlie shook his head as he sighed secretly. He really did not expect the old man to be a romantic ashe was experiencing a second spring at this age.

After arriving at the airport, the both of them came to the arrival hall at the airport to wait for Matilda andher son. Jacob kept staring at the arrival screen at the airport. After searching for a long time, he finallyfound Matilda’s flight.

About five minutes before eleven in the morning, a group of people started walking out of the exit.Jacob fixed his eyes on the group of people as he held the bouquet of flowers in his hand. At this time,he suddenly saw a middle-aged woman wearing a black dress and he waved at her excitedly as hecalled out, “Matilda!”
When the other party saw him, she was slightly taken aback. After that, she exclaimed in surprise, “Ohmy god, Jacob!”
